Whats wrong with this picture?

An elderly Iraqi woman shows two bullets which she says hit her house following an early coalition forces raid in the predominantly Shiite Baghdad suburb of Sadr City.

We've spent so much money on making America a sanctuary for illegal immigrants that we can no longer afford firing pins...

You have to feel sorry for her because she likely doesn't know anything about it. Somebody handed her the cartridges and pointed her to the camera. Without a closer examination, I couldn't tell if they were from an M-16 0r a Kalashnikov or what...

Well, after shooting several thousands of them, I am pretty sure they are 5.56mm (or cal .223) cartridges. Which would make them "ours". Or just about any NATO countries ammo. At least the journal-jizzmers know which ammo will cast the worst light on the US...:roll:

They don't look big enough to be soviet 7.62 rounds...

This is a 303 round. You will notice that it doesn't have near as abrupt a bottle neck, or calibre reduction as the rounds the lady is holding. I would tend to agree with thomaska.

 

[thomaska]

Who knows what other nefarious things our barbaric troops could sling at old Iraqi women besides unexpended ammo?????

I invite all, but especially Durka to photoshop the picture...should be fun!

These are actually the bullets that killed Kennedy.

So there. That question is answered.

Didn't you know? She's saying,

Here are those elusive WMD!:idea:

 

[bluecollarguy]

WOW How can they say they hit her house. They haven't been fired. LOL
Oh I know the coalition forces have given up there guns and started to through the bullets.

And I thought the Canadian army was still using the 7.62x51 NATO round (commonly called the 308 Winchester) which seems to be what the old woman is holding.........

You must have realized by now that DD never knows what he's talking about!:lol:

 

[Impetus]

I think Das has it right. (don't mess with him!)

From left to right: the .308 Winchester, the .300 Savage, the .30-30 Winchester, and the 7.62 x 39 Soviet.

Whaa???... Canadians in Iraq now? Our guys use the C7 - a variant of the M16 - .223 Remingtom ammo

[DaSleeper]

You're absolutely right, Canada is now using the 5.56mm round and they are not supposed to be in Iraq......the only reason I mentioned the 7.62mm round is because it is still used by a lot of Nato countries and it looked like what the old lady was using because of the relatively short neck, which most handloaders don't like in reloading.
